Patty P. (Patouie) - , reviewed A child's-eye view of Tehran on 11/15/2008 + 132 more book reviews

Offering us a quiet, child's-eye view of tumultuous times, Hakakaian weaves her words with grace and skill. There's a bit of Ann Frank in this: as a reader, I knew what was coming in her country, whereas she was innocently exploring first crushes and adolescent adventures. Her lifelong love of language shows, and makes this book a pleasure to read.
